Empathy is the capacity to take the perspectives of others, to be sensitive to their inner experience and to compassionately engage with them; appreciating the perspectives of others involves understanding the other person’s feelings and where they come from, rather than simply judging and labelling them.

Question 19

The difference between empathy and sympathy

Answer 19

It is important to recognise that empathy and sympathy are not alike. When you feel sympathetic to another person, you may feel sad about the situation the person has found themselves in and offer support.
